  • the metadata information about service features includes, for example, information regarding encoding rate, codec, and audio.
  • the WSB sends information of the determined service quality and bandwidth to the MAC of the host, in step 1307.
  • the MAC of the host creates a channel with the MAC of the device based on the information of the service quality level and bandwidth, in step 1309.
  • USB/Service of the host and the USB/Service of the device select a file and obtain metadata
  • actual data transmission/reception is performed by MACs of the host and the device.
  • FIG. 14 illustrates a host, according to an embodiment of the invention.
  • the host includes a controller 1400 and a channel create unit 1403.
  • the controller 1400 controls the channel create unit 1403 to create an initial channel to connect to a target device for a WSB service, considering a device class of the target device.
  • the controller 1400 controls the channel create unit 1403 to create a new channel to substitute for the initial channel, considering the particular service.
  • the controller 1400 controls the channel create unit 1403 to create third channel to substitute for the new channel, considering the another service.
  • the channel create unit 1403 creates the initial channel considering only the device class, such as a type of the service to be provided, or creates the third channel considering a change of the service, for example.
  • controller 1400 and the channel create unit 1403 may be inferred in accordance with those described above.
  • the host may include its own memory to store and manage the information about the service and the information about the device class, which are obtained according to the foregoing embodiments, and assign channels to achieve the same objective based on the information in the memory. In this case, without performing processes of obtaining metadata of a particular service, selecting service quality and the like, it is possible to assign bandwidth to meet the quality of the particular service.
  • areas of content reproduction may be increased by collecting channel bandwidth information required to reproduce the content.
